Comment:
Row cultivated the soybeans in the LTER T4, all reps, reps 5, 3, 2, 4, 1 and 6. The cultivator passes (6 rows) of all plots containing T posts with insect sticky traps were avoided, the cultivation was done with T posts still in place. These posts are generally located near sampling stations. These rows were planned to be cultivated the next day, but due to an unexpectedly heavy rain they could not be worked. Started cultivating in the Southwest corner of the plots to alternate from the previous cultivation. Speed varied between 4.5 and 5 mph, depending on the height of the beans.
